OPERATION
Work Area Precautions
WARNING: Cut only wood or materials made from
wood. Do not cut metal, plastics, masonry, or
non-wood building materials.
• Never allow children to operate your pole pruner. Only allow
others to use this pole pruner who have read this Operator's
Manual or received adequate instructions for the safe and
44
proper use of this pole pruner.
• Keep everyone - helpers, bystanders, children, and animals a
safe distance from the cutting area (Fig. 44).
• Always cut with both feet on solid ground to prevent being
pulled off balance.
• Do not cut above chest height, as a pole pruner held higher is
difficult to control against kickback forces.
• Do not work near electrical wires or buildings. Leave this
operation for professionals.
• Cut only when visibility and light are adequate for you to see
clearly.
• Do not cut from a ladder, this is extremely dangerous.
• Stop the pole pruner if the chain strikes a foreign object.
Inspect the pole pruner and repair parts as necessary.
• Keep the chain out of dirt and sand. Even a small amount of
dirt will quickly dull a chain and increase the possibility of
kickback.
• Stop the engine before setting the pole pruner down.
• Be particularly cautious and alert while wearing hearing
protection because such equipment may restrict your ability to
hear sounds indicating danger (calls, signals, warnings, etc).
• Be extremely cautious when working on slopes or uneven
ground.
